I love the idea that Neville will provide the last bit of help to 
vanquish LV.  And I also believe that Neville's poor memory has some 
deeper meaning (it is mentioned way too often to be a mere character 
description).  Although he was only 1 when his parents were tortured 
and so couldn't know any secrets about the horcrux from them...

Do you think it means anything that Neville's new wand was one of 
the last ones purchased prior to Ollivander's disappearance?  I 
can't figure out what that means...but I think  it has to mean 
something.
